Everywhere on the planet, those spaces, places, and resources that we share and hold in common are being targeted and exploited for personal gain and corporate profit. It is up to all of us to preserve whatever commons we still have, and to forge new ones whenever possible. The Omni Commons has tremendous potential to become a critical community space. In order to ensure our doors can open, and remain open, we need your help today. https://omnicommons.org/donate <http://omnicommons.org/donate> Love and Solidarity, The Omni Commons Fundraising Working Group

Help get Omni Commons ready to open to the public!

by Jenny Ryan

Dear Sudo Room supporter, As many of you know, Sudo Room recently moved to a new home in the Omni Commons. We've been gaining new members every week, and are excited to have the space and opportunity to work on all kinds of new projects and build anything we can imagine. Our doors are open to members and guests, but we have a lot of work left to do until we're able to officially open our doors to the public! Occupy Oakland recognized the need for common public space collectively stewarded for the benefit of the community. The Omni is one of the manifestations of this dream now emerging. To make sure it can happen, we, the Omni collectives, have launched an *IndieGoGo campaign* <https://omnicommons.org/donate>. In order to reach our ultimate goal of buying the Omni building as a community land trust, and making it sustainable, we have to take this first step of raising enough money to make the building accessible, bring it up to fire codes, equip it with a legal commercial kitchen, and implement other upgrades needed to officially open to the public. More details are available on the *IndieGogo page* <https://omnicommons.org/donate>. Please share far and wide! We are asking you to contribute any way you can. There are 3 main ways to support. *1. Come* *visit the Omni and see how you might want to get involved.* You should see the amazing building and meet the people. Or you can just hang out :-) Here's a link to our video-tour: https://youtu.be/9Zccga90hcY Our community is composed of an ever-growing ensemble of collectives and projects: * Food Not Bombs: *Reclaiming food to ensure all are fed - since the 19**8* *0s,* <http://ebfnb.org> * Counter Culture Labs: *A biotech laboratory that makes science accessible outside of academia* <http://counterculturelabs.org>, * *The Bay Area Public School* <http://bayareapublicschool.org>: A horizontally-organized all-volunteer university, * Omni Media Project: Providing education and resources for making independent media to those without access, * Material Print Machine: A community print shop for self-publishing, * La Commune: A worker-owned cafe and bookstore that serves as the entrance to Omni Commons, currently crowdfunding`to open in full <https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/la-commune-cafe-and-bookstore--2/x/90943…> ! * Optik Allusions <https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Optik_Allusions>: A radical film collective dedicated to social change, and directors of our one-shot walkthrough video tour <http://omnicommons.org/donate>, * Our commons: We're renting out <https://omnicommons.org/occupy> our large ballroom, stage, dance studio and small rooms on a sliding-scale basis, encouraging aligned groups and projects to join us in creating a model for equitably sharing space and resources. *2. Spread the word about the Omni on social media and in person.* Share the *Campaign page* <https://omnicommons.org/donate> on Facebook. Retweet the following: - @omnicommons is creating a people-powered commons in Oakland, California. Update your email signature for a month to: - "Help open a people-powered common space in Oakland, California: omnicommons.org/donate" *3. **Donate* <https://omnicommons.org/donate>* whatever you can afford. Every little bit counts!* Help crowdfund the revolution at omnicommons.org/donate You can donate to Sudo Room directly as well *here* <https://gratipay.com/sudoroom>. Thank you for making Omni Commons and Sudo Room real. If you have more ways you’d like to help, please let us know! Love and solidarity, Sudo Room

Our friends and allies have planned over 80 events for New Economy Week 2014 and we hope you’ll take a look at the map and attend an event in your area. No matter where you live, there will be a way for you to join the conversation. >From Tuesday to Friday next week, the New Economy Coalition will be hosting a panel discussion each day featuring community leaders from across the US and Canada. Check out the line-up below! Register today to access all of next week's panels. See you next week, Mike Sandmel Manager of Coalition Engagement, New Economy Coalition There Are Many Alternatives: System Change Not Climate Change Tuesday, October 14 @ 3-4pm EST Climate change is both an existential threat to the future of humanity and a present-day struggle for many communities on the frontlines of extractive industry. It is also perhaps the greatest opportunity we've had to build a broad-based movement for economic system change. This panel will explore how the struggle for climate justice can be a lens for imagining and building the new economy we need. Scaling Power for a Just Transition: Strategies to Catalyze the New Economy Wednesday, October 15 @ 4-5pm EST Our ideas for an alternative economy -- no matter how beautiful, logical, or even necessary they are -- aren’t going anywhere without social movement power. The good news is that this movement is emerging. While we have a lot of work ahead of us, there is an increasing desire to build together across traditional silos. Our projects, policies and business models are resonating with people and even beginning to displace extractive industry. This panel will explore how we can connect and learn from successful experiments, pilot projects, and campaigns to build broad-based power and effect deep transformation at scale. Panelists: Hilary Abel, Project Equity Rebecca Kemble, US Federation of Woker Co-ops / Union Cab of Madison James Mumm, National People’s Action Vanessa Timmer, One Earth Honoring our Histories, Fighting for our Future: Learning From Communities on the Frontlines of a Just Transition Thursday, October 16 @ 3-4pm EST Far too often, powerful interests divide communities by presenting a false choice between good jobs and a healthy environment. A fundamental principle of the new economy is the value of cultivating abundance -- the idea that there is enough and that we can, and must, have living wages and a liveable planet. And so we must ask ourselves: "How do we transition to a renewable economy without leaving the workers, young people, and communities most impacted by extractive industries behind? Panelists: Deirdre Smith, 350 Kwabena Nkromo, Atlanta Food & Farm LLC Ivy Brashear, Mountain Association for Community Economic Development (MACED) Displacing Injustice, Embracing Community: Lessons from Local and Regional New Economy Organizing Friday, October 17 @ 3-4pm EST >From Richmond, CA to Jackson, MI, people are organizing to build local power and are seeing major victories that could point the way forward to a new economy. This panel raises the question: "How can we support neighborhoods, cities, towns, and regions as the fertile ground for the kind of economy we need?” Panelists: Aaron Tanaka, Center For Economic Democracy / NEC Board Stacy Mitchell, Institute for Local Self-Reliance Marnie Thompson, Fund for Democratic Communities In addition to these panels, a number of NEC coalition members are also hosting online events for New Economy Week: Transition US Teleseminar: "Re-thinking Our Monetary System: Bay Bucks and the New Economy" Tuesday, October 14, 2PM to 3:15PM EST Slow Money State of the Sector Report: A conversation with Woody Tasch, founder and chairman of Slow Money Wednesday, October 15, 1PM to 2PM EST Community Resilience 101: How Your Community Can Thrive in Challenging Times by JP New Economy Transition Thursday, October 16, 12PM-1PM EST Count Care In: Foundations of Prosperity in a New Economy by the Caring Economics Campaign Thursday, October 16, 4PM to 5PM EST Sent via ActionNetwork.org.

FW: Come to Inside Urban Shield Forum - Friday 10/10/14

-----Original Message----- From: "Gerald Smith" <gsmith1917(a)gmail.com> Sent: ‎10/‎9/‎2014 9:34 PM To: "ecoeconomist11(a)gmail.com" <ecoeconomist11(a)gmail.com> Subject: Fwd: Come to Inside Urban Shield Forum - Friday 10/10/14 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Gerald Smith <gsmith1917(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, Oct 9, 2014 at 8:15 PM Subject: Come to Inside Urban Shield Forum - Friday 10/10/14 To: Gerald Smith <gsmith1917(a)gmail.com> Urban Shield Background. The eighth annual Urban Shield, a special weapons and tactics exposition showcasing the latest in law enforcement equipment, took place at the Marriott in downtown Oakland on September 4-8, 2014. The annual event brings together law enforcement agencies from around the world - including Israel, Bahrain, Qatar, Brazil, Guam, South Korea and Singapore, in addition to police forces from around the U.S. They share militarized intimidation tactics, training exercises and a military hardware sale convention for agencies seeking weapons to suppress their local populations with S.W.A.T. Teams, neighborhood lock-downs and Martial Law. Urban Shield is hosted by the Alameda County Sheriff's Office, but was organized by the for profit corporation known as Cytel Group Inc. which was founded by former assistant sheriff of Alameda County, James Lester Baker. Mr. Baker founded the company as a way to promote the anti-terrorism Urban Shield program around the world. The Cytel Group also organizes Urban Shield conferences in Austin, Texas, Boston, New Orleans and abroad. For years local activists and community members have vehemently opposed an event of this kind taking place in a city with such a strong history of police repression, violence and murder. In 2011, Urban Shield took place just days before the tear-gassing, beatings and shootings of Occupiers that took place on October 25th. In 2013, an all-day speakout and demonstration was held at the Marriott. This year, five hundred people blocked Broadway outside the Marriot for hours in protest of the events inside. With political, economic and people pressure being thus brought to bear, and the specter of Ferguson looming, the Mayor of Oakland announced that Urban Shield would not be held in Oakland in 2015. Guest Speakers. Several members of the local community took bold steps to get inside Urban Shield as volunteers, journalists and analysts to be able to testify to the public on all they observed. Shane Bauer was kidnapped by Iranian forces while hiking near the Iraq/Iran border. Along with Sarah Shourd and Josh Battel, he was held in solitary confinement in Iran for months. When released he turned his attention to investigative reporting, concentrating on California’s solitary confinement prison system and, most recently, Urban Shield. Julia Carrie Wong is a freelance investigative reporter who has written pieces for Vice, Al Jazeera, Salon, The Nation, In These Times and 48 Hills. Her recent piece on Urban Shield in Vice, Militarized Cops Pretend to Fight Terrorists in Oakland, was highly acclaimed. Joshua Smith is an Oakland activist, and an investigator for the Oakland Privacy Working Group. His work for OPWG helped curtail the Domain Awareness Center, Oakland’s own version of an NSA spy center. Josh was able to attend some of the Urban Shield seminars. Susan Harman is an Oakland activist, member of Code Pink, the Oakland Privacy Working Group and Strike Debt Bay Area. She “volunteered” for one of Urban Shield’s training exercises. Attend Inside Urban Shield to hear reports by these speakers “from the inside,” ask questions and help build community opposition to future events not only happening in Oakland but all over the country.
